Would it be weird to ask a more experienced investor to shadow?

[Matthew Rosenthal]

I've been reading and researching a ton but I believe the best way to learn is to get out there and do it yourself. Do you think it would be weird if I started to reach out to different investors who are more experienced and see if I could shadow/learn from them? Maybe through LinkedIn or these forums? 

I want to have more saved for just in case expenses for life/a potential rental property but also want real time experience and I think this would be a great way to do it.
